Silver AWD configurations and deliveries

Not seeing any reports of silver Dual Motor cars being delivered, just these two posts indicating that a silver Performance model has been built (though my understanding is that this thread is not about the Performance model, is that right?) and a silver VIN 560xx is being delivered in early September. Anyone else? There is a belief by some that silver is the least popular Model 3 color, and if true, that could mean that those who want that color may wait longer for it compared to other colors.
last night I got the email that my silver with white P3D- model 3 has been built. No details on delivery estimate or VIN yet, but it has been built so they've done a batch of silver. :)
Got VIN 560xx and delivery set for first week in September. :)
 
Every day i read orders after mine, and delivery’s scheduled already. But not a single word from Tesla except the website change tease... also seeing more and more 3’s around town, none Silver... at this point im so fed up i shouldn’t even post

Finally a silver! congrats and dont forget to go to amazon.com, buy a dragy, and give us those performance #'s and videos we all have been craving for!

CONGRATS!:)
So I live in a mid-rise condo building in Chicago and charger/outlet costs were almost 3-4K, so ended up transferring the car to my dad, was able to transfer the account over the phone with the delivery advisor. Black interior. I will be going with him on Saturday to pick it up and will be driving it all weekend! Hopefully there won't be any further delays from what I've been reading on these forums..

Made the same phone call and was told "your reservation RN10839XXXX is very early but all I can tell you still is sometime Sept-Nov"

It IS annoying to see other silvers and other AWDs delivered that were never reserved and to non-owners! Gotta wonder is there was any benefit to reserving back in 2016.
Was the same thing with my X!

Looks like we are waiting for the same car.

Maybe Tesla is spending this time making the silver color the same as the alpha reveal silver o_O
 
I’m convinced they use a giant lottery ticket tumbler for each configuration with our RN’s written on tiny papers. As each car goes through inspection Elon pulls out a ticket from that tumbler and bam, they get an email or call.

I have seen a large drop in people claiming they are getting cars without a Reservation unless they are RWD.
